The Roundabout features a quick and easy installation with either LATCH or traditional seatbelts. (Tan Swirl color shown.) View larger. | Quick and Easy Installation
Easy to install correctly, regardless of whether your vehicle is LATCH compatible or not, the Roundabout takes the guesswork out of installation so you know your child is safely positioned on every trip. The Roundabout features a tangle-free, five-point harness made with rough and tough polyester webbing to resist wear and tear. The push-button LATCH (Lower Anchors and Tethers for Children) connectors help tightly secure your child quickly and easily so you won't have to worry about struggling with endless straps and complicated procedures, and convenient belt holders keep the harness to the side so you can place the child in the seat. Additionally, the harness offers three adjustable shoulder height positions for a snug fit over the shoulders, collarbone, and hips. Finally, the Roundabout provides built-in lock-off clips that keep the seat tightly in place when using only traditional seatbelts at installation. A simple handle pull allows the car seat base to be easily reclined when rear-facing, and the one-pull harness strap adjuster makes for a quick, easy, and secure fit every time. HUGS for Optimum Safety and Support
When it comes to safety, the Roundabout truly delivers. First, the patented floating HUGS (Harness Ultra Guard) system exceeds U.S. safety standards by reducing forward head movement as it gently cushions the neck and chest with soft padding--a feature that's particularly important both in the case of an accident and during nap time. Made of expanded polystyrene (EPS) and extra thick comfort foam, this system better distributes the webbing loads, reducing head movement and minimizing harness irritation on baby's neck in case of impact. HUGS also reduces the chance of improperly positioning the chest clip. Versa-Tether for Additional Security
The Roundabout also offers Britax's patented Versa-Tether, an anchor aid that provides additional security in the forward facing position for children weighing more than 50 pounds. The Versa-Tether fastens the top of the car seat to factory-installed automobile anchor points, minimizing the possibility of a head injury in the event of impact. Weighing only 14 pounds when empty, and measuring 18.25 x 25 x 23.5 inches (WxHxD), the Roundabout is incredibly comfortable. For added convenience, it is certified for air travel. The Roundabout comes with a limited 1-year limited warranty. The Roundabout is also available in the following colors: Granite, Cowmooflage, New Denim, Tan Swirl, and Jessica.

Safe and Comfortable August 18, 2008
The Britax Roundabout is a terrific car seat. I have been using it now for about four months. Although I had a few installation issues, I was able to resolve them with a little bit of trial and error and a phone call to Britax. The seat, which is made in the USA, is well-made. Everything functions exactly as it should--crisp buckles, soft harness straps, smooth harness adjustment system, etc. The seat is also very comfortable. My son falls asleep easily in his Roundabout, and his head doesn't flop over but instead usually lands on one of the seat's wings. The cover is velvety soft and the padding is very adequate. When I purchased this car seat, I also seriously considered the Britax Marathon. I chose the Roundabout because it is more compact and my son, based on statistical averages, likely won't hit the 40 lb / 40 inch weight and height limit for several years.
great quality and not too hot August 8, 2008
This product is bought because there is a online discount during July 2008 on Amazon. This is our second car seat. It's very well designed and not taking up too much room. The overall quality is great. We are all satisfied.
excellent car seat July 30, 2008
this is a great car seat, I feel that our daughter is very secure in this car seat. also the pattern is so cute too!
 Britax has never failed me July 30, 2008
The "tan swirl" color is much nicer in person than the picture. I was concerned that it was too light of a color, but was pleasantly surprised when it arrived. This Britax car seat is very easy to install, very solid, small enough to buckle into a smaller car. The seat belt straps are a bit rough against my son's neck, so I would suggest buying some padding. Overall, as usual, Britax has made an excellent car seat.
VERY HAPPY! July 28, 2008

I was a little concerned about this carseat AFTER I ordered it b/c of the reviews comparing this to the Marathon and Boulevard. Yes, it's smaller...but I LOVE IT! It was easy to install, fits great rear-facing in my car (I have a volvo s-70), and my son seems to really by comfortable. I actually think the Marathon or Boulevard would have been to big for my car, with the carseat rear-facing. Yes, he will grow out of this faster than other Britax carseats...but by then I'll probably want to buy a newer one anyway. This is a wonderful purchase, and I couldn't be happier!!
